  • Are the Klaxon (Twist) and Klaxon (Twist R) wheelchairs designed for single-use only, or can they be reused after cleaning and maintenance?

    The Klaxon (Twist) and Klaxon (Twist R) are supplied as either single-use or reusable devices, depending on the specific model and configuration. The manufacturer provides storage and maintenance instructions to ensure proper functionality and longevity for reusable units, so reuse is possible if following those guidelines.

  • Are these wheelchairs sterile, or do they require additional preparation before use?

    The Klaxon (Twist) and Klaxon (Twist R) are not sterile devices. Since they are intended for mobility assistance in home, clinical, or community settings, they are not packaged or handled under sterile conditions.
